[Windows] Allow for alternative config file location

[teknowledgist]

I would be nice to have the ability to specify a different location for the config file. In particular, if the location could use system variables (e.g. %appdata% in Windows) to allow every user their own configuration.

Think: a music lab where the computer is locked down to already installed/approved apps and each user can only affect their own profile. Currently, Giada can't work in this situation.

Thanks!

I believe that %appdata% in Windows should be the default choice. The configuration file is located next to the binary file at the moment: not a great solution.

Anyone willing to pick up the mantle on this ?

Thanks! Once this is tackled then downstream window repos will be green light to distribute giada 👍
